About View Excel File Online

Sometimes you just need to look at what's inside an Excel file — check a value, confirm the data someone sent you looks right — without actually opening Microsoft Excel, especially on a device where it isn't installed or when you just want a quick read-only look.

This tool reads an uploaded .xlsx or .xls file and displays it as a clean, scrollable table directly in your browser — if the workbook has multiple sheets, tabs let you switch between them, the same way Excel's own sheet tabs work.

This is a read-only viewer for looking at spreadsheet data, not an editor — for actually modifying values or converting the format, use this site's other spreadsheet tools (CSV to Excel, Excel to JSON, and the rest of the Spreadsheet & Data Tools category).

How it works

  1. Upload your Excel file. Choose a .xlsx or .xls file from your device.
  2. Browse the data. View the spreadsheet as a scrollable table.
  3. Switch sheets if needed. Use the tabs to view other sheets in a multi-sheet workbook.

Examples

Multi-sheet workbook

Input

An .xlsx file with "Sales" and "Inventory" sheets

Output

Two tabs shown; click either to view that sheet's data as a table.
